i ran the ams mass stack and it shut me down bad and killed my sex drive. i would try something like havoc or h-drol for your first cycle or run just 1ad or decavol solo. i did run the ams super mastervol and saw good results with that but it will also shut your body down. all the ams products seem to work well but stacking them the first time out is pretty serious business. if you run them get your pct in check. you'll need it.
is having some temporary shutdown that much of a turn off? i know most guys on the board do not want the shutdown, but are all these guys having that much sex that it becomes a factor? i'm married, and i just tell my wife that i am/going to be experiencing a little shutdown and we do just fine. as long as someone has the proper pct setup to bring them back, shutdown shouldn't deter someone from using a product that produces results.
Thinking of doing either the AMS mass stack or 1ad&4ad stack. It would be a first pro-hormone cycle for me if I did. Question is a serm necessary or advisable.?
thanks

Yeah that's the one. Sorry for not being clear enough.You may be speaking of a different stack then i am. this was sent to me in reply on how to stack decavol with 1 ad and 4ad from the AMS website.

Actually, shutdown is not that much of an issue for me per-se. Frankly because I'm new to the whole PH thing, I'm looking for something that can be used with an OTC PCT. Not that I'm opposed, eventually, to doing something stronger where a serm is advisable. I'm actually more concerned with gyno than shutdown at this point.
Thanks for the quick response by the way.
I never worry about the shutdown. I know it's coming but there are ways to prepare if your sexual active. Shoot one borderline legal supplement is Aspire 36. It's an analog of one of the three ED drugs...(pretty sure Cialis). According to them I heard they actually stumbled upon it. One thing I noticed besides the obvious was I got headaches while on it, but nothing advil couldn't fix.
The 1-androsterone will convert to 1-testosterone, which is a very potent hormone. It is notorious for causing some of the more visible side effects (lethargy, libido loss, testicular atrophy, etc). On the other hand, it is one of the more liver friendly compounds available. Its effects on blood lipids are much better than some of the popular 17-alpha methyl steroids available OTC. 1-test is also pretty unique in that it provides some extremely solid lean gains and excellent strength gains without the methylation.
I've personally used both 1AD and havoc (among other things) on separate cycles. Both were 6 weeks in duration. In my opinion, 1AD provided superior gains to havoc in both lean mass and strength. I felt that its "leaning" effect was also superior to that of havoc. IMO, the visible side effects were comparable between the two, but the gains were much much more dramatic with 1AD. My liver enzymes and blood lipid profile had little change post cycle. Meanwhile havoc raised liver enzymes and killed my HDL's.
IMO, 1AD would be a much better option in terms of side effect cost/benefit. For PCT, a SERM would be ideal for either compound...but you could get away with using a product such as 6-OXO instead.
Thanks. Very helpful.
Do you recommend doing a standalone 1ad cycle?
If it is your first PH cycle, go by what the box says, you'd be surprised how little you need to work.
